Spring by Joe Latham
5.0
adventurous dark emotional funny hopeful fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Loveable characters: Yes

The only thing that's awful about this is that all of the seasons aren't out yet!! 

Interestingly, the writing is dark and lyrical, but the dialogue is so cute and often funny. It is "for kids",  but never talks down to its audience or over explains.

I love the watercolor illustrations and the character design. Adorable creatures on scary adventures is one of my favorite tropes. Reminds me of playing Wanderhome with friends.

Overall, I am hyped for the rest of this epic journey!
